Yun pauses; just about six or eight feet ahead of them is a cat. Her tail is stretched over her back, forming a loop until the tip of it is pressing against her back.

She's as dark as night, and Yun's watching her, "A ring-tailed cat?"

She's an American ring-tailed cat, a rare mutation that affects a small portion of cats.

"It's cute!" Zeno tells him, having come close enough to Yun that he's practically leaning on his side.

"Yeah." Yun admits almost reluctantly, and tosses it a small amount of raw meat.

The cat hurries over to eat it, and sort of nods her head at Yun as if to thank him and when she finishes eating the meat, she looks up at him and meows in a slightly high pitched voice.

"Did you make a new friend?" Hak asks Yun, shrugging next to him.

"Probably not." Yun retorts and despite his curiosity at seeing a ring-tailed cat in person for the first time ever, he walks away.

She's probably just grateful for the delicious meat anyway.


There's a solid lump of weight on his chest, and it's warm. Yona's not a cuddler, so he knows it's not her.

When Yun opens his eyes, he's staring into little green eyes. There's the ring-tailed cat, friendly and behaving as if she's always been here.

She's purring, a decently loud, almost breathless sound. And now, that Yun's awake; she's kneading her paws into Yun's blanket.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" Yun muttered, conscious that Yona's sleeping not far away.

The cat grinned and meowed, thankfully quietly.

"Thunder Beast's right. I've made a new friend." Yun muttered.
